Ekiti State Governor, Dr Kayode Fayemi, has said he would look into the last-minute appointment made by his predecessor, Ayodele Fayemi.
He also reiterated his commitment to the welfare of workers in the state by ensuring payment of backlog of salaries within the first six months and one year of his administration.
The governor stated this during his maiden meeting with the leadership of the public service comprising of Permanent Secretaries, General Managers and Executive Secretaries.
According to a statement made available on Friday, Fayemi said his government would soon look into the appointments hurriedly made by the past administration adding that his government would not keep anyone mainly on appointment letter from the Civil service commission.
While explaining that his administration did not wish to add to the burden of the state when those already in the saddle were not properly catered for, the governor added that those workers properly recruited had nothing to fear.
He stressed the need for public officers to be loyal to the government of the day and shun politics.
Fayemi urged them to be professional in handling government duties and to always follow due process.
He appealed to the accounting officers to regularly furnish him with necessary information and stressed the need to stand their ground and do their work the way it should be done.
Earlier, the Head of Service, Dr Olugbenga Faseluka, officially presented the hand-over documents of the past administration to the governor.
He pledged unwavering support of the public service to the new administration.
